A wire cloths hanger straightened out with a small piece of cloth on the

Now I am sorting out the vacuum lines and checking them. I must admit the lines seem like a lot of extra work. Seems like the engineers could have simplified it!

The vacuum lines the first time out were abit scary but Ive pulled the plenum enough I think I could do it without any pictures.........but Ill take some just to be safe.I dont know if you have the plenum back on yet but Haibeck has a DVD for the system checks for the vacuum system as well as the fuel system for leaks.With the DVD you can watch the actuators for operation and pressurize the fuel system to check for leaks.

Thanks, I'll take the help. I took a lot of pics during the disassembly. They have really helped!
